Abstract:
A bend pipe for supplying a fluid to a fluid machine or discharging the fluid from the fluid machine, wherein, provided that: a line including a pipe axial center line of an inlet pipe portion and an extension line thereof is defined as a line L; a line including a pipe axial line of an outlet pipe portion and an extension line thereof is defined as a line M; and a direction parallel to an intersection line formed by a plane orthogonal to the line M and a plane orthogonal to the line M is defined as a direction I, and when, as seen from the direction I, a side of the line M on which the inlet pipe portion exists is defined as a front side and a side of the line M on which the inlet pipe portion does not exist is defined as a back side, a side surface on an outer side with respect to a bend direction of a bend pipe portion includes an outer inclined surface on the back side of the line M, the outer inclined surface being inclined so that a distance from the line M decreases toward a downstream side.
